The comma, apostrophe and quotation marks each provide a different functionality, and are used internally in a sentence. The comma is used to separate words. The apostrophe is used to indicate possessiveness. Quotation marks indicate a direct quote from a person.

Gerald owed Cindy two dollars. He gave her ten because he felt bad. What should be put in between the two sentences to make them one sentence? A. a comma B. a semicolon C. a hyphen D. an apostrophe

Answers

Answer:

B) A semicolon

Explanation:

A semicolon is a punctuation mark used to join two clauses together.. These clauses must be independent. These independent clauses are joined by a semicolon to form a complete sentence. On the other hand, a comma is used to separate clauses or objects in a sentence or phrase. A semicolon should not be used in place of a colon or comma. All three have their own duties. A colon is used when an emphasis is about to be made or when listing items. A hyphen is used to join two or more words but without spacing

An apostrophe is used when a word was omitted.

Answer:

semicolon

Explanation:

From the question, the most appropriate punctuation to use is the semicolon as shown below

Gerald owed Cindy two dollars; he gave her ten because he felt bad.

It helps to join the two independent clauses together without the need to apply additional conjunction such as and. Also, there was no need to apply a capital letter after the semicolon as shown above.

Answer:

d. all of the above

Explanation:

Although alcohol does not cause venereal diseases or abuse on its own, it does impair a person's thinking abilities. This means that a person, in this case a teenager, who consumes alcohol, is more likely to make bad decisions that can place him or her in vulnerable situations. This could increase the likelihood of engaging in unprotected sex or being victims of sexual abuse. Naturally, regular consumption of alcohol could also lead to developing a dependency on the substance, otherwise known as alcoholism.
